A) l Since the retirement of Andrew Luck in 2019, the only season in which the Colts were a bona-fide contender was 2020, when our starting quarterback was Philip Rivers.


B) l When the Colts' once-sizzling 2025 season was coming apart, the man who almost salvaged it and saved it from ruin was ...... Philip Rivers.



Something tells me that Irsay and Ballard ought to beg Uncle Phil to come back and play in 2025, as he appears to be a modern-day Earl Morrall/George Blanda.

I’m guessing if someone other than Rivers plays any at all, it will be AR, assuming he starts practicing.

But it’s a moot point because they’re gonna ride with Rivers.

AR can't even be on the sidelines without sunglasses. He's fucked up. That "cleared to work out" designation is really not registering with people.

LOL....I wondered if I was the only one noticing that! It is a tragic story, but AR is just not cut out for the NFL. No shame in that, 90% of the population couldn't hold up to the physicality, let alone have the skills required to be the QB.

Probably especially if Texans lose to the chargers

I noticed it as well, Just a thought. Maybe he didnt want the cameras on his eyes during the game. Also I wonder if the pre game light show could iritate his eyes.

I do agree that there must still be issues.

I'm rooting for the kid. Just not this yr

I will add that if the Texans lose on Saturday it has to be Rivers at QB against the Jags.

If we are out I hope they put in Riley to shut everyone up who thinks he's ready.

NO WAY he can run that offense like rivers can. NO WAY But some will need to see it for themselves.

And I am a Riley fan. Just not yet

#Colts HC Shane Steichen says QB Philip Rivers will start against the #Jaguars regardless of whether Indy is eliminated from the playoffs.

Says it wouldn't be "fair" to Riley Leonard to start the rookie on 24 hours notice if Rivers takes the first-team reps all week.

I don't disagree, but we will never know if we don't throw him out there in the line of fire. I know statistically I am most likely wrong, but with the season a huge disappointment letting a 44 year old stir the ship while it is taking on water is probably not the wisest decision. Sans the QB position there is still a ton of NFL players drafted beyond the 4th. round playing and contributing. Shake the tree and see what falls out.

Leonard wasn't a great passer in college. seems like a really good kid but I just don't understand why people think he may be any kind of answer
